Summary
This week we talk about our daughter, Dottie, and our other daughter, Dottie’s sister. Join us (and guest Jade Van Kley) for a lively chat about A League of Their Own.
You can find Jade on Twitter here, and her podcast Backstage Triage here.
We made a playlist to accompany this episode! It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie.
You Are Good is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens.
You can find us on Twitter, Instagram and Patreon.
You can find producer and music director Carolyn Kendrick's music here. She's also on Twitter.
Fresh Lesh produces the beats for our episodes.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, Sarah Marshall. Hello, Alex Dean. Welcome listeners to You Are Good, which is a |
| 0:11.1 | feelings podcast about movies. We're watching a league of their own with our friend Jade. |
| 0:16.6 | This is a super fun episode. Oh yeah. This is our summer fun season that we're having |
| 0:21.4 | now. Schools out for summer. Schools out forever. Like I think that what we do really well |
| 0:27.6 | is we talk about, you know, we don't talk about movies necessarily critically. We talk |
| 0:31.1 | about them through the lens of people who are exploring feelings. I think we do that pretty |
| 0:35.1 | well. That's kind of what we're looking out to do. But I like this episode because we talk in |
| 0:39.4 | a number of different ways about people's motivations. And when I talk about and try to recognize |
| 0:45.1 | other people's motivations, I understand myself a lot better. And I found it after listening |
| 0:49.5 | to this episode to get ready for this introduction. I think that that's a thing that stands out |
| 0:53.6 | in a big way. We talk about everyone's motivations. And it's really lovely. And it's super fun to do |

| 1:07.6 | attributes. And she also solves a mystery, I believe. So get excited for that. Wait, what is, oh |
| 1:12.7 | yes, she does solve a mystery. She knows about baseball hands. A thing came up when we were |
| 1:21.6 | getting ready to record this introduction because Carolyn, who produces the show, puts together a |
| 1:27.2 | audio collage at the beginning of each episode. And she came across a thing I was trying to keep |
| 1:31.8 | out of this. I was trying to keep out of this episode. And she shared it in a group text to us. |
| 1:36.4 | And I was like, Sarah, don't watch this. Don't watch this for your mental health. Oh boy. But you |
| 1:42.0 | haven't watched it either. So what if it's like I haven't well, but you've seen you've heard it |
| 1:46.4 | described, I guess. So tell me about that. So here's what we're talking about. And I heard this |
| 1:51.0 | talked about in unspooled another great movie podcast where they had talked about this thing that |
